"Pokémon GO" recently brought an update, the Gen 2 update features. It brings a lot of additional patches including Eevee's evolution; where you only change the name from Eevee into Sakura and Tamao to get Umbreon and Espeon. This time, we will tackle on how to evolve another Pokémon, Tyrogue.

In "Pokémon GO," Tyrogue is the baby form of Hitmontop, Hitmonchan, and Hitmonlee. Good news my dear Poke trainers! There's another trick on how to evolve Tyrogue, although it's not renaming tricks like Eevee. It's a little bit more difficult than Eevee's method of evolution.

For Tyrogue's evolution, there's a thing we called split evolution where you can use it every time; but it depends on what Tyrogue you catch or hatch. Both Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan from Gen 1 have its new base from when it comes to Gen 2.

In "Pokémon GO" Gen 1 if ever you have caught a Tyrogue, just gather 25 Tyrogu Candy and you can evolve it into Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan, and Hitmontop. But for "Pokémon GO" Gen 2 it's more on predicting on which "Hitmon" you will have, the method on how to evolve Tyrogue came from the main series games where everything has to do with its Defense, Attack and HP stats.

"Pokémon Gold and Silver" features Tyrogue evolution by focusing on its stats, for example, Tyrogue will evolve into Hitmonlee if its Attack is higher than its Defense, Tyrogue will evolve into Hitmontop if its attack is equal to its Defense, and it will evolve into Hitmonchan if its Defense is higher than its Attack. These methods are used by trainers in evolving Tyrogue in "Pokémon Gold & Silver," according to Otakukart.

As for "Pokémon GO," IMore explained that the current technique to evolve into Hitmonlee, Tyrogue's highest IV (Individual Value) must be its Attack, for Hitmontop Tyrogue's highest IV must be its HP, and to evolve Tyrogue into Hitmonchan, Tyrogue's highest IV must be the Defense.

Wait, how to know which IV Tyrogue has the highest? In "Pokémon GO," it's very simple, by only appraising your Tyrogue then your Team Leader will automatically pop up on screen, telling you what its highest stat. That's Tyrogue's highest IV. Try it, it's accurate!
